Surprising stock pictures from Lange !!
I find it surprising that Lange stock pictures show misaligned month indicators for both watches. No it is not the angle of the camera, nor stopped watch. Very surprising indeed since German engineers are known for their precision. This is what prevented me from pursuing this watch when it was announced with the same stock images. I wish their marketing team was more attentive. Hopefully their current production QC has caught up with this issue.
flop? Nearly droped my coffee cup...
But o.k., as a play of words, in context to what was said before it is an answer that I will count. But I feel worse to come from you about this Lange ... Moritz
I already wrote what I thought about it. Cold and uninspired,
I don't like this dial, I still try to find where is its beauty, its soul, its charm, and I just found emptyness, and boredom. But tastes and colors... Best, Nicolas
don't care of it so much
i wouldn't have said anything in the face of such enthusiasm, but amanico broke the ice. i just find the face unbalanced pace foversta. it has all this gravity in the lower half and i don't think, spatially speaking, that it's adequately balanced by the u...
But its story of "gravity" is always the same with a big date...
Even with the Langematik Perpetual, even with the Datograph and we don't find their dials unbalanced. The real low gravity watch in Lange collection is IMHO the Cabaret Tourbillon. Again, it is a matter of taste. Thanks for your input. Fx
It is a watch I really like.
Even if like Nicolas I would have liked a more elaborated post, I would like to bring my comments about this watch. I really like it, yes! I like it for several reasons: - I like its dial lay-out which is very legible. - I like that the 3 subdials have th...

These watches were the SIHH prototypes.
And these pics come from me, not from Lange. When you read our SIHH or Basel reports, many times the pictured watches are not 100% perfect. But in the case of the Saxonia Annual Calendar, there was a little shift with the WG version but absolutely not wit...
had it on the wrist yesterday in Barcelona
First time seeing it in the metal. From pics this was at the top of my acquisition short-list. Unfortunately, I came away underwhelmed. The dial appeared flat and uninspired (at least in comparison to my L1 MP and 1815 chrono), and while I appreciate the ...
5396g......
I have a major gripe with this watch and I am perplexed at the lack of enthusiasm for the Lange. The 5396g is not, imo, a harmonious dial. All of its information is constricted to the center of the watch. All that information that looks squeezed in the mi...
After looking at it carefully, I find it a beautiful watch with clean and balance dial.
The problem is: when you see too often Langmatik Perpetual and Datograph, you start to compare and and put this watch in the same category. Naturally, you find emptiness on the dial. You may even think that Lange tries to cut corners. Regards Ling
Well,unispired,underwhelming,cold,are words that are used too often...
to describe Lange s last few years production. Once again fans claim more daring attitude and excitement from a brand we love so much. In this case the watch is not so bad after all,I think there is much worse in recent Langes.It is what it is,as FX said,...
You mean: it is half an annual calendar? I say it is...
much, much more: to 99.95% a "mermapooopulll calendar", says a Count with a gag order. Best Moritz
